Kurnool civic chief orders strict steps to stop illegal garbage dumping

Action Plan

Kurnool Municipal Corporation Commissioner Challa Obulesu has ordered officials to find roads, vacant plots, and other public spots where people throw garbage illegally. He also told them to build public awareness to stop this bad habit and make sure residents support the door-to-door waste collection system.

Ground Visits

Mr. Obulesu checked cleaning work on Monday in Gibson Colony, Birla Gate, Krishna Nagar, and Chennamma Circle. He then went to the Kalluru ward office to check new tools bought for water supply and repair jobs. During a visit to the Anna Canteen at the government hospital, cleaning staff told him about their waste collection problems. He talked to them right away and ordered waste pickup from the hospital twice every day.

Holiday Work

He stated clearly that waste collection must go on without any break, even on public holidays.

Context

Local civic bodies in Indian cities often check cleaning work to keep public areas clean and healthy. Door-to-door waste pickup helps stop garbage from piling up on open streets and empty plots.
